‍Pros & Cons (ShowMe)

‍Pros	‍Cons
Portable screencasting.	Writing math with a stylus. (I wish Ipad had a hard tip stylus!) Skips
Set-Up PowerPoint slides as images to annotate on	One slide at a time (*EduCreations lets you prep multiple slides with background image)
Sharing options include download (beta), embed and link	Small writing space - hard to capture long problems with "marker like" writing
Quick to create and upload	"Tin" sound sometimes when recording
Unlimited Time	Writing does not look as professional as I would like
Free	Beta Download option sometimes disappears
	Strange frame around embedded video - I can get rid of it if I download to mp4 and then upload to screencast.com. (JWPlayer?)
	Image quality of PowerPoint slide as background is diminished.
